This morning under my eye is swollen and discolored. I also have pins and needles feeling on my whole right side of face from eyebrow..to cheek..to nose and upper lip .

Ophthalmologist,  's  Response
first of all u have not told what is the status of vision in the hitted eye.but if it is ok then u can relax and take some analgesic tablets two times a day and cold fomentation on the face area. it will naturally cure in a week. but if vision is affected show an ophthalmologist urgently.
